I'm a little bit happier with this image than I have been of my past few stacks. In the full-size version, I can zoom in quite a bit before I see too much pixelation in photoshop. I still haven't received my external flash, so the lighting isn't good, but I was just testing to see how using flash would help reduce vibration problems.
This is a ZS stack of 21 images taken with a bellows at 21 cm (sensor to objective tip) with a Leitz 10X EF objective and the pop up flash diffused with two sheets of notebook paper above and below.
I was wondering as I set up . . . if camera lenses have longer working distance when mounted backwards, is the same true of microscope objectives?

How does this one look?

Nope, doesn't work that way. If you try reversing a microscope objective, typically its focus point will be someplace inside the barrel. Also the quality will be awful because of aberrations. You have to use them the way they're designed.scitch wrote:I was wondering as I set up . . . if camera lenses have longer working distance when mounted backwards, is the same true of microscope objectives?
